WOOL IS A COMPLEX FIBER THAT IS NATURALLY WATER-REPELLANT. THIS MEANS YOUR HAT WILL SURVIVE GETTING CAUGHT IN A LIGHT DRIZZLE BUT IT WILL ALSO KEEP YOU COOL ON A HOT DAY. WOOL IS DURABLE AND RESISTS WRINKLES, SO THE HAT WILL DO A GOOD JOB ON ITS OWN OF KEEPING ITS SHAPE. BECAUSE WOOL KEEPS A LAYER OF AIR NEXT TO THE SKIN, THE SHAPE OF THIS HAT IS MEANT FOR YEAR-ROUND WEAR.

CARE

LIGHTWEIGHT BODIES

THIS HAT IS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN OUR STIFF-BODIED HATS AND OUR SOFT BODIED HATS. SINCE THERE IS NO BAND, YOU CAN HANDLE THIS HAT A LITTLE ROUGHLY, BUT KEEP IN MIND THAT THE SHAPE OF THE CROWN NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED.

STORAGE

IF THE BRIM DOES GET WONKY WITH LOTS OF HANDLING, LAY IT ON A TABLE OVERNIGHT WITH BOOKS APPLYING PRESSURE ON ANY WAVES IN THE BRIM.

CLEAN

BRUSH CLEAN WITH NATURAL BRISTLES. HAT CAN ALSO BE LINT-ROLLED. NEVER WASH, BUT SOILING/STAINS CAN BE WIPED CLEAN WITH A VERY DAMP CLOTH.
